It's on a swinging and pivotable arm...which when not in use pushes near flush to the wall and out of the way. That's the clean efficient way to mount a piece of equipment...not some big hulking woodgrain 1970s cabinet taking up half your VR play area space. -

$11.25
$12 might be less than an hour of wage over there but here thats almost a full days wage over here, and no.
not going to spend an extra dime when i already have everything i need here. -

the thing is its FIXED.
only women and men with low t and sloshing estrogen in their bodies would want their belongs tied down to a fixed and permanent position, just like they are. it reenforces their sense of security somehow.
men, real men value mobility and flexibility uber all else. of themselves and their belongings. -

2021-07-20 at 6:43 PM UTCdoes the TV only have ethernet and not wireless? if that's the case you might have to run cable (easiest way is to punch holes in the floor and run it underneath if you can)
if it has wireless but the signal is too low you can set a router up as a repeater but not all of them have the option, it's usually called wds -

the tv only have an ethernet port. in order to connect wirelessly i have to buy proprietary wifi dongle for it, regular usb wifi dongle wont work.
WDS is what im talking about. from what ive been reading a few options are available, one of that is to set up a wireless bridge, another is with WDS.
im not sure which ones easier. -

I have that exact same thing sitting in a drawer here, never figured out how to get it working.

Depends on the hardware/software combo. In general WDS always was kinda shitty, but I used to use it with two DD WRTs. I found it more reliable to use three, one main router, then two, one stacked on top of the other, one to pick up the signal from the first, then send it to the third via a short ethernet wire. The third then ran a separate Wifi access point.
Right now I use a mesh system (TP Link Deco, it's easy to set up and reliable, but kinda expensive and not very configurable). Each mesh router has an ethernet plug. It works, but sometimes for same network file transfers it's slow due to the general shittiness of the software.
A cheap way to do what OP wants this might be Ethernet over Powerline, if you can get the Ethernet Powerline adapters cheap.The following users say it would be alright if the author of this post didn't die in a fire! -

why are your solutions sounds costlier. all i need to achieve is this.
in simpler terms, all im trying to do is to use my old router as wifi dongle. -

Umm it just 1 screw and then lifts off, are you unfamiliar with how those Vesa(or whatever they are called) mounting plates work. It's a lot more mobile portable than your 120lb 1970s TV cabinet. Fucking Lollocks Town, Mississippi -

usually setting up as reapeater or WDS will only work for wireless connections, ie. you have one router connected to the internet and another one connected to the first wirelessly - the second router will often only work with clients that connect using wireless, not ethernet.
if you find an old router post the model and I'll check it out. you might want to look into ethernet over power, those are pretty cheap but might not work well if your wiring is shit -

yea, from my research ethernet-wireless-ethernet connection is called a bridge, wireless bridge or something similar.if you find an old router post the model and I'll check it out.
i have 2. one is a 12 years old prolink 254, the other is linksys e1200. i think shes 9 years old.you might want to look into ethernet over power, those are pretty cheap but might not work well if your wiring is shit
buying additional stuff always cost more. -
